| I recently decided to get a job at night a few nights a week and my husband does not seem very happy, I can home and I said I got the job, and he said yup. I mean is it that bad that I got a job. I run a daycare and I have two children of my own!!!! I need a break!!!!!!!!! Does anyone agree????? |

| I am sorry to hear that. Is you hubby upset that you are working? If it's something you want to do then it's not bad. You sound really busy! Ask you hubby what he is feeling? Communication is definitely the key. Let me know what happens. I just joined a company that allows me to work at home without intruding on family time.

| I agree with MIckey. Communication is very important especially in situations like this. I was also trying to find a job and my husband wasn't too fond of that. He said that these are the most important years for our children, which is true. So now I am trying to find work from home. So yeah, I would definitely talk to him to see exactly where he is coming from. Good luck! |

| Mickey, I looked at that website you posted, but it really doesn't have a lot of information. Can I please get you to tell me a little more about it? Thank you. |

| Some men like for their women to stay home so that they know where they are at and what they are doing at all times.Some men like to keep the money tight so that they can control you so that you have to ask them to go and do things. |

| Well by all means my husband is not that bad, he likes when I am home, but I need time to get away for the children. I love my job as being a mother and a childcare provider, but I need some alone time. I think he is unhappy because he feels he is not doing his best, money is tight so I feel that I should be helping more, does that make me a bad wife or a good wife? |

| It definitely does not make you a bad wife or mother. We all need time for ourselves. I get attitude from my husband sometimes when I go somewhere to get out of the house. The problem is he always wants to go with me and doesn't understand fully that sometimes I want to go out without him. I know alot of mom's that go through the same thing, so you are definitely not alone. |

| Thank you!!! I know I am not a bad wife, but I told him I feel guilty leaving and he said well you should not feel that way, and my reply was you make me feel guilty because you are not happy with me working, I am sure it will get better!!! |

It'll probably just take a little time for him to get use to it. It will definitely make him apprecite you more. I thought about getting a job just to have some alone time! but my dh was like heck no!

| I absolutley agree with you. I waitress at 2 nights a week and on the weekends. Its great... its a little extra gas and grocery money. My husband likes it because he gets his special time with our girls. i have a 5yr old and a 7month old. When my 5yr old was born he was in Iraq. He came home when she was 4 months old. i think he feels like he has to make it up by spending this extra time with them. It works out great for us. and it gives me the extra adult interaction that I dont get during the day. i hope your husband understands. Its so very important. good luck :) |
